JT10

POWER

Powered by a Tier 4, 66-hp (49 kW) Deutz® diesel engine, the JT10 is the most powerful drill in its class. A Tier 4i option is available for less regulated countries.

The machine’s open-top vise wrenches are angled toward the operator for an excellent view of the tool joint and require no daily maintenance.

With no grease zerks and easy access to all service points, maintenance is simplified on the JT10, helping to keep the machine out of the shop and on the job.

The drill pipe lubrication system is a standard feature allowing operators to drill for longer periods of time and improve uptime.

JT10

OPERATOR'S STATION

A newly designed operator's station is equipped with an ergonomic traversing seat, positioning the operator near the center of the pipe rack for easy-to-reach pipe handling.

The new ergonomic seat is designed to reduce operator strain and keep the operator comfortable for long hours on a job.

An advanced operator display provides a clear view into all engine diagnostics for boosted performance and productivity.

The JT10 is equipped with a single joystick for quicker and smoother operation, freeing a hand for operators to focus on other tasks, including controlling mud flow and jobsite communication.
